UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador David Beckham is accompanied by children and a UNICEF staff member as he tours a UNICEF-supported centre for children who formerly lived on the streets, in Manila, the capital. Mr. Beckham is holding the hand of twelve-year-old Shaina (yellow shirt). Shaina was abandoned by her parents at a very young age and was raised by her grandmother. She was found begging on the streets after her grandmother died. A star football player on the centre’s team, she wants to be a nurse. Mr. Beckham wears a T-shirt bearing the UNICEF logo.
